The title may lookalike a roadmap but its actually a new electric vehicle which is all set to rock the French auto market. Bangalore based Indian electric maker Reva and contract manufacturer Argentum has manufactured an electric vehicle which was showcaused at paris auto show. Both Reva and Argentum will make components and the CKD kits will be exported to France and assembled there. Christened as ‘pondicherry’ to mark the French association with their once colonial state (French ruled Pondicherry till 1949) this 3.5 metre golf cart-type vehicle is a neighbourhood runabout, a small supply vehicle for shops around the corner.
Reva – Heuliez (read Argentum) also plans a larger vehicle and four seater electric car for France. Reva is already enjoying good market share with its G-Wiz in european electric vehcile market.

This car should also be launched in India. Many buyers are looking for electric cars. So hope that Reva thinks to launch such cars in India also.
